Nedjelja iza Uskrsa zove se Bijela nedjelja.
Tako je nazvana po bijelim haljinama u koje su se odrasli novokrštenici oblačili na Veliku subotu u noći, dan svoga krštenja, nosili ih tijekom tjedna, kao znak krsne milosti, a onda, u nedjelju poslije Uskrsa, odlagali.
I danas, djeca na krštenju dobivaju simbolički bijelu haljinicu. Bijela nedjelja ima u nas još i pučko ime: Mladi Uskrs ili Mali Uskrs.
